<p class="lead">Use the <samp>animate</samp> program to animate an image sequence on any X server.   See <a href="command-line-processing.html">Command Line Processing</a> for advice on how to structure your <samp>animate</samp> command or see below for example usages of the command.</p>

<h2><a class="anchor" id="usage"></a>Example Usage</h2>

<p>We list a few examples of the <samp>animate</samp> command here to illustrate its usefulness and ease of use.  To get started, lets animate an image sequence in the GIF format:</p>

<pre class="p-3 mb-2 text-body-secondary bg-body-tertiary cli"><samp>magick animate movie.gif </samp></pre>

<p>To animate a directory of JPEG images, use:</p>

<pre class="p-3 mb-2 text-body-secondary bg-body-tertiary cli"><samp>magick animate *.jpg </samp></pre>

<p>You can find additional examples of using <samp>animate</samp> in <a href="https://usage.imagemagick.org/basics/#animate#animate">Examples of ImageMagick Usage</a>.</p>


<h2><a class="anchor" id="options"></a>Option Summary</h2>

<p>The <samp>animate</samp> command recognizes these options.  Click on an option to get more details about how that option works.</p>
